Fortress pancake compressor
Separate equipment from the T-1000 poly bagger. Follow this routine for the Fortress compressor only.
Start-of-day checklist
- Inspect: confirm the tank is drained, the hose and fittings look secure, and the drain valve is closed.
- Connect power: plug in the compressor and switch it on.
- Build pressure: let the compressor run until it reaches operating pressure.
- Check PSI: confirm the regulator/gauge is at the required pressure before running the equipment it supplies.
End-of-day safety check
- Switch off: turn the compressor off.
- Drain the tank: open the drain valve until water stops flowing, then close the valve.
- Pull the power: unplug the compressor after draining it.
Stop and get assistance if the compressor will not build pressure, the gauge is not reading correctly, or a hose/fitting leaks.
